I just watched the entire video and it was very informative. Fwiw most of the comments on here did not watch the video and seem a little uninformed. The node apis were built by a small group of front end developers and most of the pulled out services they're building are in python . There were also a lot about message queues, cacheing, and ops related things in the talk. I definitely recommend watching the entire video if you're interested in high traffic architectures.

While those basic strategies are technically good for scaling, I think the other commenters have a very valid point: it seems a lot of folks say, "no, this strategy is not something that appears to be working because the site is slow, buggy, and, oh, did I mention slow." I think many folks consider scaling and fast a success and scaling and slow/buggy a failure. Who wants to emulate failure?
